After the film’s massive, it was rumoured that Rajkummar Rao had increased his fee. But the actor, in a recent interview, completely dismissed the rumours and said that he does not want to burden his producers. 

While reacting to these rumours, Rajkummar Rao told The Indian Express, “I read different figures every day. I’m not stupid to burden my producers. Being a part of the biggest blockbuster is not going to change me as an actor, money is just a byproduct of my passion. I want to work all my life so I keep looking for roles that surprise me, excite me, challenge and help me grow.”

He said, “aar, honestly itna paisa hai nahi jitna logon ko lagta hoga ki ye toh bhai ₹100 crore. Itna nahi hai. Bhai, EMI chal rahi hai. Matlab ghar liya hua hai, uski EMI hai achhi khasi. Toh matlab aisa bhi nahi hai ki nahi hai. Par aise wala bhi nahi ki aaj mann kia ki showroom mein ja ke, ‘Kitne ki hai wo?’ ‘Sir, ₹6 crore ki.’ ‘De de’ (I don’t have that much money. People would assume I have ₹100 crore. I don’t have that much. I’ve been paying a hefty EMI for a house I bought. It’s not like if I feel, I can visit a showroom and purchase a car worth ₹6 crore).” 

Thr third instalment of ‘Stree’ is also in development.
